IPv6 and CDN's

And ipv4 I presume so there is still easier and cost less money to just go with that. 
From our point as an MSP no customer has a requirement that they want to be able to be reached via IPV6 so it’s still cheaper to buy up IPV4 address space and do a lot of nat than to convert all our services to function properly with IPV6. 
Sure one could argue that they should have been made that way from the beginning but without customer demand why would we spend the money?
